I use a digtal handheld manometer for my velocity readings and a 42" water manometer that I use (I like the water manometer better) and a few other small water manometers I use when I test carb fuel signals.
You could make your own water manometer with some clear tubing, that is what I used when I first started out, make a scale with a yardstick, paper or on the board you mount the tubing to and you are all set. If you make the scale slidable up and down it makes it easier to set zero. You can find everything you need to make a U-tube or well manometer here on the forum in back posts. There are a few pics also to help aong the way.
